Product details
Overview
LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF from Analog Devices is a low-quiescent-current surge stopper IC that controls an external N-channel MOSFET to protect downstream loads from automotive load dump, reverse input, overvoltage (up to 250Vpk), and overcurrent events. It features fixed 31.5V/50V gate clamp selection via SEL pin, 8µA operating current, –40°C to 125°C extended temperature range, and AEC-Q100 qualification for automotive use.
For engineers reviewing the LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF datasheet, LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF pinout, LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF application, or LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF equivalent, key selection criteria include gate clamp voltage configurability, fault retry behavior (auto-retry vs latch-off), MOSFET stress acceleration via TMR-based multiplier, reverse input protection to –60V, and compatibility with high-side N-MOSFET configurations in battery-powered systems.
Technical Context
The LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF implements a multiplier-based fault timer where TMR pin current scales with both VDS (via DRN pin) and ID (via ΔVSNS) to dynamically shorten turn-off time under high MOSFET power dissipation. Its internal 20µA charge pump regulates GATE to VOUT + 11.5V, while dual gate clamp options (31.5V/50V to GND) enable output clamping at ~27V or ~45V respectively.
It supports auto-retry fault recovery (LTC4380-2 variant), with cool-down cycling between 1.215V and 3.4V on TMR, and includes reverse input protection down to –60V, ON-pin undervoltage detection (1.05V threshold), and adjustable turn-on delay (5ms typical).

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar surge protection applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| LTC4380HDD-2#WTRPBF | Same functionality and specs, but in 3mm × 3mm DFN package (θJA = 43°C/W vs MSOP's 160°C/W) | Better thermal performance in space-constrained layouts; requires different PCB footprint and reflow profile | Select for higher power density or improved thermal management; verify layout clearance for exposed pad soldering |
| LTC4381HMS-2#WTRPBF | Includes integrated 100mΩ N-MOSFET; removes need for external FET but limits max current to 3.5A and max VIN to 40V | Reduces BOM count and layout area; not suitable for >40V or >3.5A applications | Select when system current ≤3.5A and input ≤40V; tradeoff is lower flexibility and higher on-resistance vs discrete FET choice |
Compared with LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF, the DFN variant offers superior thermal resistance for high-duty-cycle surge events, while the LTC4381 integrates the MOSFET to simplify design at the cost of voltage/current scalability and thermal customization.

FAQ
What is the gate clamp voltage configuration for LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF?
The LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF supports two fixed gate clamp voltages: 31.5V (when SEL is tied to GND) and 50V (when SEL is tied to VCC or OUT). This selects output clamping at approximately 27V or 45V respectively, optimized for 12V and 24V/28V automotive systems. The LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF does not support externally adjustable clamping - that function is reserved for LTC4380-3/-4 variants.
Does LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF support auto-retry or latch-off fault behavior?
LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF implements auto-retry fault behavior (LTC4380-2 variant). Upon overvoltage or overcurrent fault, it enters a cool-down phase where the TMR pin cycles between 1.215V and 3.4V 15 times before discharging to 100mV and automatically restarting. This differs from latch-off versions (LTC4380-1/-3), which require ON pin reset or power cycle. Auto-retry ensures system resilience against transient surges without manual intervention.
What is the maximum reverse input voltage tolerance of LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF?
The LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF supports reverse input protection down to –60V on the VCC pin, enabling direct connection to vehicle battery without external reverse-polarity protection diodes. This capability eliminates forward voltage drop and associated power loss, making it ideal for always-on automotive modules where efficiency and thermal management are critical. The –60V rating applies with ON and SEL pins either open or biased within their absolute maximum ranges.
How does the TMR pin current scale with MOSFET stress in LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF?
In LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF, the TMR pin current is generated by an internal multiplier that scales with both VDS (sensed at DRN) and ID (derived from ΔVSNS). This causes the fault timer to accelerate proportionally to MOSFET power dissipation (VDS × ID), shortening the timeout period during severe faults. As a result, the device enforces stricter safe operating area (SOA) compliance than fixed-timer solutions, protecting the external FET under sustained overload or high-voltage transients.
Is LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF qualified for automotive applications?
Yes, LTC4380HMS-2#WTRPBF is AEC-Q100 qualified for automotive applications (Grade H, –40°C to +125°C ambient). It is manufactured under controlled automotive processes, with full reliability reports available from Analog Devices. The "#W" suffix denotes automotive-grade qualification, including enhanced ESD, HTOL, and temperature cycling validation - making it suitable for under-hood, body control, and ADAS power management systems.
